Cinzia Tassinari

Cinzia has being working at Paradise Park Children’s Centre since 2012, working her way up from Sessional Playworker to Early Years Support Worker before being promoted to her current role as Early Years Worker. She feels that her role as a key-person of a group of toddlers as a rewarding challenging, having to relate to young children on their level without losing sight of her objective to foster their physical, intellectual, social and emotional development and well-being by supporting each child constructively on their “unique” learning journey.

What do you love about working at IPA?The rewards are immense! There is nothing more exciting than witnessing a child achieving a new goal for the first time and nothing is more fulfilling than getting captured by a sudden eye-contact of an autistic child unable to speak. Even when I feel exhausted, at the end of a challenging day, I am grateful for what I have received and learnt from those wonderful creatures, whose thirst for knowledge, I have been given both the honour and responsibility to nourish.

All children need a place to play. They need space, informality and freedom to run around and make a noise, to express themselves, to experiment and investigate. In surroundings which stimulate their imagination and challenge them to face and overcome risks, they will be helped to build up their self-confidence and independence.
